Ingredients
Vanilla Bundt Cake
- 2 cup sugar
- 4 eggs
- 125 ml cooking oil
- 400 ml warm water
- 3 cups flour
- 4 tsp baking powder
- Salt
- 15 ml vanilla essence
Granadilla Cream Cheese Frosting
- 250 g cream cheese softened
- 230 g granadilla pulp about 1 cup
- 500 g icing sugar approximately 4 cups, sifted
Instructions
Vanilla Bundt Cake
- Preheat your oven to 160°C (320°F). Grease or spray a bundt tin thoroughly and set it aside.
- In a large mixing bowl, whisk the eggs and sugar together until pale and fluffy (about 2–3 minutes).
- In a separate bowl, whisk together the flour, baking powder, and salt.
- In a small jug, stir the oil and warm water together.
- Add half of the dry mixture to the egg mixture and gently stir to combine.
- Pour in half of the oil-water mixture and mix again.
- Repeat with the remaining dry ingredients and oil-water mixture, stirring just until everything is incorporated.
- Pour the batter into the prepared bundt tin. Bake for 45–50 minutes, or until a skewer inserted into the center comes out clean.
- Remove the cake from the oven and let it rest in the pan for 10 minutes. Turn it out onto a wire rack to cool completely before frosting.
Granadilla Cream Cheese Frosting
- In a mixing bowl, beat the softened cream cheese until smooth.
- Stir in the granadilla pulp, mixing well to combine.
- Gradually add the sifted icing sugar, beating on low speed at first to prevent a sugar cloud. Increase speed once it starts to blend. Continue mixing until you have a thick, spreadable consistency.
- Spread or pipe the frosting over the completely cooled bundt cake. If desired, drizzle extra granadilla pulp on top for added flavor and decoration.
